See the job's margin before it's too late to act.

We automate job costing, WIP schedules, AIA progress billing, and change-order tracking — then prove the recovery on your numbers, free.

Systems we meet you in: Procore, Viewpoint, Sage, QuickBooks — pay apps, WIP, and job cost included. For a specialty contractor with an 8-person office, that usually reads as hours back per week and days sooner to get paid — not headcount cuts.

Your world

If this is your job board, we should talk.

Job costs get coded after the work is done, not as it happens.
WIP percent-complete is a phone-call-and-guess every month-end.
AIA pay apps and lien waivers are assembled by hand, every draw.
Change orders get approved without anyone updating the margin model.
You find out a job lost money when it closes, not midway through.
Sub compliance certs and insurance docs are tracked in a shared inbox.
What we automate

From the field to the financials.

Job costing & cost-to-completeCosts coded to jobs as they post, with a running cost-to-complete updated weekly.
WIP schedulesA signed-off WIP schedule with over/under billings, ready on the first day of close.
AIA & progress billingPay applications and schedules of values drafted and lien waivers tracked by draw.
Change-order trackingEvery change order logged with its margin and schedule impact attached.
Project margin reportingA live margin view by job, surfaced before the loss is locked in.
Subcontractor & vendor APInsurance certs, compliance docs, and three-way match cleared without the inbox chase.
We've sat in the operator's seat. Maxwell served as Chief of Staff of a building-products company, owning monthly P&L reporting and board materials, and knows the project-based, job-cost accounting that construction runs on.

Days sooner to get paid when draws and change orders stop waiting on a shared inbox.
No one gets laid off — capacity goes back to the field, estimating, and getting paid.
What you hand over — sample pay apps and exports first; production passwords only after NDA and scope.
